They are back
After so long they decide to show their ugly faces
It’s worse than before
They don’t look the same
It’s a new cruel game
Hey kid
We are here for your life
I want to run away and change my name
Maybe then I’ll find some peace
Maybe then I’ll get some sleep
Locked in this haze
These prison bars won’t go away
I’ve fought my demons once and I’ve sent them back to hell
Only this time they’re back with something to tell
You won’t make it this time
You won’t make it through
You won’t live to see another day
Ever since they left my skin hasn’t felt the same
I should have known they were still there
Crawling to get back in power
I’ll give you a run for your money
Symphonic stuff in metal doesn’t make its way into my collection aside from a couple of early Cradle albums. The orch here though just ads to how huge this band sounds. It makes elements in the songs more immersive. There are plenty of breaks from orchestration where its in deathcore/slamming brutality mode. While not ignorant, the songs never play with time or get mathy making it accessible and memorable. Came out 2015? Impressed. Mitch Mitcherson
